    Dave Chappelle defends J.K. Rowling, DaBaby in Netflix special ‘The Closer’: ‘Gender is a fact’

    Dave Chappelle seemingly spoke out in support of author J.K. Rowling during a rant on his Netflix special that courted even more controversy with the transgender community. 

    The comedian’s sixth installment in his Netflix deal, “The Closer,” debuted on Tuesday and it includes a moment in which he discusses the controversy that surrounded the “Harry Potter” author in 2019 when she argued publicly that transgender women are essentially a threat to the gender identity of biological women. The writer doubled down on several occasions, arguing that trans women are not actually women, prompting swift and immediate backlash from the transgender community as many activists continue to fight to dissuade people of similar negative stereotypes.

    “They canceled J.K. Rowling – my God,” Chappelle says in his special. “Effectively, she said gender was a fact, the trans community got mad as (expletive), they started calling her a TERF.”

    “I’m Team TERF. I agree. I agree, man. Gender is a fact,” Chappelle added (via USA Today). 

    His controversial comments on transgender people weren’t the only time he discussed the LGBTQ+ community during his special. Chappelle also discussed the recent backlash that rapper DaBaby received after making homophobic comments at a recent Miami-area music festival about people with HIV/AIDS. He was forced to make several apologies as criticism led to him being dropped from the Lollapalooza lineup.

    “DaBaby shot and killed an [man] in Walmart in North Carolina. Nothing bad happened to his career,” he continued. “Do you see where I’m going with this? In our country, you can shoot and kill a [man], but you better not hurt a gay person’s feelings.”

    Fox46 reported at the time that the charges in the shooting were dropped after a key witness did not show up to testify. DaBaby claims that Craig was trying to rob him, but his family says that was not the case.
